Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

I looked over and was about to lash out at whoever it was when my eyes met with the most handsome man I had ever seen.

I opened my mouth to say something but no words could come out. No one has ever made me feel this way before. What the hell is wrong with me??

“Are you going to let go or what??” His deep voice was enough to bring me out of my dreamland.

I blinked in embarrassment when I saw him giving me an impatiently look. I think he noticed me drooling at him.

I shook my head to wipe off the disgusting thoughts I was having. Never in my entire life have I ever drooled openly over someone before.

“Huh??” I asked since I didn’t really catch what he said.

He glanced at the neck-tie I was holding before looking back at me. I understood what he meant but still didn’t let go of it.

“I was going to take this tie.” I said.

“Doesn’t matter now that I have taken it first.” He answered. I scoffed inwardly. I was getting really upset right now.

“Who do you think you are? You saw me approaching it and still went ahead to take it.” I said loudly, attracting the attention of the other customers.

Some of them have brought out their phone to record the moment. Probably because it was me Ariel Addams having a feud with a nobody.

“Ariel.. just let go. We can get another.” Sandy said and wanted to pull my hand off the tie but I didn’t let her.

I noticed it first before he came and snatched it on purpose. I wasn’t going to let go so soon.

“Listen to your friend.” He said and that made me scoff. Or what??

“How dare you try to snatch something from me! Do you know who I am??” I asked.

“Am I supposed to?” He asked back.

The audacity!!! How dare he!! He really doesn’t know who I am?? I stared at him in surprise. Is there anyone that doesn’t know me. The infamous Ariel Addams.

“You really don’t know who I am?” I asked again, in surprise.

“Are you having some type of identity crisis? Don’t you know yourself? Why do you keep asking me who you are?” He asked making everyone around to burst out laughing.

My face scrunched up in embarrassment.

“What did you just say to me? Do you know what could happen to you for what you just said?” I threatened hoping he would falter but I was wrong.

“Do whatever you want. I don’t care.” He said before he pulled the necktie forcefully away from my grip, causing me to loose my balance and stumble forward. Thankfully I didn’t fall down because that would have been embarrassing.

“Spoilt brat..” He said and eyed me in disgust before he left.

I was so mad and I wanted to go after him but Sandy held ne back.

“Don’t bother. Do you want him to humiliate you the more?” She asked and that’s when I noticed the cameras around me.

The crowd that had gathered around couldn’t stop laughing at my shame. They continued taking videos and started murmuring at themselves.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“The great Ariel Addams has finally met her match.”

“How will she be able to show her face again in the public?”

“I bet she would be so ashamed to even go anywhere.”

“See the way she’s talking like she owns the whole mall.”

“Who is that guy??”

“He wasn’t even afraid of her. Thank God there are still sane people in this world that sees the brat for who she really is.”

“Oh my God!! He is so handsome.”

I was really angry and wanted to just shut those people up but I held back myself. Sandy covered my face and led my out of the mall.

“Look at her, she’s covering her face in shame.” Someone said.

“Why wouldn’t she? Wouldn’t it be more crazier if she walked out with her head held high?” Another replied and they all bursted into another round of laughter.

I could slowly feel my insides burning up. Who the fuck is that idiot. Who do they think they are talking to? I wanted to turn back but Sandy held me. She must have felt my fury.

“Don’t listen to them. Let’s just leave now before it gets worst.” She whispered.

Thankfully, we were able to leave the mall. I entered the backseat of my car and Sandy followed suit, sitting beside me. The driver didn’t waste any time and took off immediately.

I sat down in silence while Sandy brought out her phone and started browsing the internet. Never in my life have I been humiliated this way and it’s all because of that nobody.

Who exactly does he think he is? What’s more annoying is that the bastard acted like he doesn’t even know me. I know that was a very big lie because I’m very popular in the whole of Miami.

I was still deep in my thoughts when Sandy’s voice snapped me out of my reverie.

“The video of all that happened earlier has already gone viral. Never knew people were this much invested in your life.” Sandy said.

I took the phone from her and read out the annoying headlines with anger deep in me.

“The queen has finally met her match.” What sort of nonsense headline is this?

My anger increased as I continued reading the news. Then I got to the comments section.

“Finally someone stood up to her.” One said.

“She thinks she rules the whole of Miami all because her family is rich.” Another commented.

“Who’s the unknown guy?? He’s really handsome.” Handsome my foot.

“If I was given a chance to lay with him for just one night, I wouldn’t waste any time.” Whore..

“Her embarrassed face is so funny. How I wish I was there when it happened.” One commented with a laughing emoji. It made me really annoyed.

I was about to reply the comment when Sandy snatched the phone from me.

“Don’t bother wasting your time on things like these. If you comment on it, it would only increase the drama.” She said.

“But it’s getting really annoying. I need to teach these lowlives a big lesson.” I said and wanted to grab my phone from my school bag when she held my hands.

“You are just giving them the attention they want if you do that. Just wait a few days or weeks and the drama will die down or better still, you can ask your P. R team to delete those videos.” She adviced but it was still not enough for me.

Though I decided not to reply them, I had a plan in my mind. I was gonna teach the person that caused all these problem a big lesson. But first of all, I need to find out who it is.

He stared at her departing figure with an a cold and blank look on his face. Though she was beautiful like they had told him, he never expected she would be this spoilt and bratty.

He started to have second thoughts on whether he made the right decision. His heritage would be at stake if he doesn’t do what his grandfather had said but he can’t guarantee she would last long with him.

After standing on the same spot and deep in his thoughts for sometime, he entered his car and drove off.
